Energy is one of the main supporting factors of human life. Energy and how it is used must be efficient, sustainable and renewable as much as possible. Energy is at the center of almost every major challenge and opportunity facing the world today and access to energy for all is critical. But energy must be available and affordable for all to enable future development, and it must be clean to ensure that development is sustainable.
Energy-efficient renovation and building
Universitas Indonesia imposes a policy to guarantee that all renovation or new building obeys energy efficiency standards. It is regulated in the Regulation of the Board of Trustees (MWA) of UI No. 001/Peraturan/MWA-UI/2015 concerning the Long-Term Development Plan of Universitas Indonesia in 2015 – 2025. In addition, UI has issued an energy conservation policy through Rector’s Decree No.1310/SK/R /UI/2011 concerning the Energy Conservation Program at Universitas Indonesia. UI also implements an energy-saving policy in each faculty.

Plan to reduce energy consumption
In accordance with Rector’s Decree No. 2446/SK/R/UI/2016 concerning the Master Plan for the New Campus of Universitas Indonesia in Depok in 2016-2026, every new building at UI must have a Green building concept including saving energy, using local materials, and considering zero run off, green replacement, and minimum carbon footprint. Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences (FMIPA) has a policy No. SE-55/UN2.F3.D/OTL.00/2022 concerning the Energy Conservation Program in the faculty environment, aiming to save electrical energy by choosing efficient equipment. Such program is also applied at Faculty of Computer Science (Fasilkom), Faculty of Public Health (FKM), Faculty of Psychology, Faculty of Social and Political Sciences (FISIP), Faculty of Economics and Business (FEB), Faculty of Law (FH), and School of Strategic and Global Studies (SKSG).

Universitas Indonesia always monitors energy usage on campus to identify areas with the highest energy wastage. Excessive electricity usage is difficult to avoid, particularly at the institutional or company level where electricity consumption is difficult to monitor due to the vast number of users. Faculty of Medicine (FK) measures electrical energy usage in its faculty as an effort to reduce energy usage. It is also applied at Faculty of Public Health (FKM), Faculty of Humanities (FIB) and Faculty of Law (FH).

Universitas Indonesia has the policy of reducing oil usage in campus by developing some technologies to reduce coal waste and oil usage. This technology is developed by UI students and introduced to local community. For example, UI students create technology to turn coal waste into reusable fuel. UI also has the policy of using environment friendly vehicles to reduce carbon emission and oil usage. For example, UI provides bicycle and electric scooter to support intra campus transportation that can be used freely by UI campus community members. UI also develops electric vehicle for public needs. At present, UI already has some electric vehicles running in campus, such as buses, cars and some motorcycles.
